"quite remarkable… an enormous 'epic' fantasy/imagined history, which is extraordinarily coherent, detailed, accessible and plausible…"

"a classic 'quest hero' of mythic proportions who is also a believable (indeed lovable) character and 'ordinary' human being…" (Hi-Arts)

Review Homepage

"In Skara, truly, we find an extraordinary tale, thousands of years in the making, shaped by a master’s hands."
– Prof Ari Berk, Central Michigan University

"Andrew Appleby has a remarkable imagination. Skara is wholly original and surprising – a one-of-a-kind work that entertains even as it dazzles."
- Ken McGoogan, Author
